ZARAMELLA

Typical of Padua and its surroundings, it could derive from the ethnic of Zadar, modified in dialectal form or even by nicknames linked to the word candy to indicate the sweetness of character of the ancestor, unlikely the connection with the term shawm typical of other areas of central Italy and the South in particular (see Ceramelli). Of this name you have traces for example in the Baldus of Teofilo Folengo (1491-1544): "... His Bagatellandi off Gallantiter Artem, Incipit, UT nunquam melius Zaramella giocavit ante Ducam Borsum... ".
